Nahum 3:15-17

American Standard Version

¹⁵ There shall the fire devour thee; the sword shall cut thee off; it shall devour thee like the canker-worm: make thyself many as the canker-worm; make thyself many as the locust. ¹⁶ Thou hast multiplied thy merchants above the stars of heaven: the canker-worm ^[a]ravageth, and fleeth away. ¹⁷ Thy princes are as the locusts, and thy ^[b]marshals as the swarms of grasshoppers, which encamp in the ^[c]hedges in the cold day, but when the sun ariseth they flee away, and their place is not known where they are.
